In 2000, he returned to Kenosha, Wisconsin. Mark loved to fish Lake Michigan with his nephews and his brothers, and was a devoted member of No Veteran Dies Alone. Most recently, he created Lower East Side Media on Youtube with over 1,000 subscribers who tuned in regularly to watch his expertly crafted and beautifully edited rock and roll videos of his favorite band, The Rolling Stones, and where he also promoted up and coming artists. Mark was preceded in death by his mother, Lottie Lipnicki Naumowicz.He is survived by his daughter, Angelina; his granddaughter, Mila Everly; his father and stepmother, Albert and Margie Slugocki; his sisters, Lillian Slugocki, Lori Slugocki, Lonnie Bero and his brothers, Steven Naumowicz, Mike Naumowicz, John Naumowicz and Gregory Slugocki, as well as a loving extended family including, Sophi Neu, Debi Wallin (his honorary sister) Zach, Luke, Jacob and Chloe Naumowicz, Chris Neu, Brad Neu, Ted Lipnicki, Stacey Chike and Lisa and Kyle Lipnicki, and many others.
